She was thrown in the ring
wrestling with the many words
that defined the sport
roped off by civilized notions
and laws she must follow
as she crawled beneath the rope
she got twisted
and flipped about
stuck
feeling the self worth
being beaten out of her
by each opponent she came across
and all their thoughts
slammed all of hers to the ground
and the words she muttered
was never a match
when it came
to the ones that were already known
because being the lesser
that she was
kept her to her knees
because her thoughts
weren’t that of the many
sending her ideals crashing
as the ref counted
she held her ears cauliflowered
by the constant flow of words
flying out from the others
and she stayed down.
My word of the day was wrestling. Thanks for reading.
